Topic: 500 Million

Jane Goodall suggested at the World Economic Forum that global environmental issues stem from a human population size that has far exceeded levels from 500 years ago. Historical data indicates the global population was approximately 500 million in the year 1500, a figure that aligns with the controversial Georgia Guidestones. The discussion links modern climate activism to the "population bomb" theories of the mid-20th century.

Bruce Springsteen has sold his entire music catalog and publishing rights to Sony for an estimated $500 million. This deal follows a similar trend by artists like David Bowie, though Springsteen's payout is significantly higher. The sale means Springsteen's music will likely be used in widespread commercial advertising, and he may even have to pay royalties to perform his own songs.

The hosts discuss the Georgia Guidestones, a granite monument that lists ten principles for a "New Age of Reason," including maintaining the human population under 500 million. They explore the "New World Order" implications of the monument's message regarding world courts and social duties.
